What's in our TriyIt box

 

We have been picked for the latest TritIt box to review, I have never actually shared one of these on here before but I thought it would be interesting to share what things I have been sent to try. Firstly this on one of the strongest boxes we have received for things that we will use and enjoy.

  1. Whiskas cat meat - We have two sachets of chicken in gravy for Jack to try, this is perfect as Whiskas is our favourite brand for Jack and he has always enjoyed it.
  2. Opihr Gin - There were two small bottles of Gin in two different flavours, Aromatic Bitters and Oriental spice, these sound very tasty and we can't wait to give them a try.
  3. Lyles topping syrup (maple) - We got a full size bottle of this to try, none of us have actually tried this before so we are very excited to try this.
  4. Whyte and Mackay Whiskey - There was a small bottle of this whiskey in there and Liam is very happy with this as its a brand of Whiskey that he is familiar with
  5. Shanky's whip whiskey -  This whiskey is a new one on him, this again came in a small 2 shot size bottle and we are both intrigued as to how this will taste.
  6. Wassen Hydrate + replenish -  We have got a sachet of this to try, this is a brand that I am not familiar with but I will definitely give this a go.
  7. Bazooka chews -  We have two packs of Bazooka chews, on with a sour sherbet inside and another which is a bit of a surprise, its either powder or gel, Lils has already been trying these.
  8. Proto Future Eco laundry strips - We have a sample versions of these and I am always looking for for ways to make our like more eco so i'm very happy they we get to try these out.
This box really does have something for everyone to enjoy and we are so excited to give everything a go. There are some brands that I have heard of and other that are completely new to us. If you want to know about any of these products I can do follow up posts.

Autumn Tag

Hello, I thought that today I would take part in the Autumn tag so you can all get to know me a little better, I took part in this on my old blog many years back and a lot has changed since. Autumn has to be my favourite season with so much change and the excitement for Christmas not far ahead. 1. What signifies the start of Autumn for you? I know Autumn starts at the end of September but for me its the first of November when it starts to officially feel like Autumn, it all of the sudden feels different and colder after Halloween and especially when the clocks go back too. 2. What is your favourite Autumn scent? My favourite autumn scents are either Orange or berries, they always make the house smell so warm and toasty in wax melt form and I love them in a hand cream or even a bubble bath scent too around this time of year.. 3. What is your favourite Autumn colour? My favourite Autumn colour has to be the burnt orange for the leaves but burgundy colour for clothing, the are just very w...

Macaroni Cheese | Recipe and Method

I do love a pasta dish and macaroni cheese is such a comfort food for me, its so easy and simple to make, perfect for a busy evening taking only 15-20 minutes to make.

Cottage pie recipe

I have recently started making my own Cottage pie with a recipe that I have tweeted to work four our fussy family. I find that a cottage pie is such an Autumn/Winter staple as it feeling like such a warm, hearty meal, one that is a proper comfort meal.  I recently started making the meal and found that I didn't have a packet mix in so decided to find a recipe to try out, the first one I found sounded good but I changed it slightly to fit our family, Lils isn't keen on fresh onion ad none of us like celery. I thought I would share our recipe with you which can easily be adapted if need be. Recipe 500g Beef Mince 1 carton of tomato passata  1 tbs tomato paste 1 beef stock cube 1 beef stock pot 1 tsp onion salt 1 tsp garlic granules 1 tsp mixed herbs 2 medium carrots sliced and part cooked Salt and pepper 3 large potatoes for mash 75g cheese Method 1. Preheat you oven to gas mark 4/180oC 2. Brown off the mince and drain off excess oil from the pan. 3. Pour in the pass...
